We thank you, Lord, and we praise you
for bringing us to this happy day.
You have given us to each other.
Now, together, we give ourselves to you.

We ask you Lord:
make us one in our love:
keep us one in your peace.

Protect our marriage. Bless our home.
Make us gentle. Keep us faithful.

And when life is over unite us again
where parting is no more in the kingdom of your love.

There we will praise you in the happiness and peace
of our eternal home. Amen.
